Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum has appointed Pablo Gómez, formerly of the Unidad de Inteligencia Financiera, to lead a new presidential electoral reform initiative. This move has sparked criticism from opposition parties, notably the PAN, which warns that unilateral changes to electoral laws without broad dialogue could jeopardize free elections and political stability. In response, a group of former electoral officials, including Lorenzo Córdova, José Woldenberg, and Leonardo Valdés, have called for a national dialogue to ensure the reform is based on consensus. Sheinbaum emphasized the importance of honesty and integrity in government and highlighted the progress under the Fourth Transformation (4T), stating that Mexico has regained its dignity, especially following a recent 90-day tariff suspension agreement with the United States negotiated with former President Donald Trump. Additionally, Sheinbaum praised the recent judicial reform introducing the first popular vote election of judges, magistrates, and ministers. Opposition voices, including PAN leader Jorge Romero and Deputy Dolores Padierna Luna, have expressed concerns about the reform process and criticized the support some opposition factions have given to Trump's attacks on Mexico. The electoral reform project aims for potential approval as early as September 2025.
